Default Will a twin turbo setup from a C6 work on a C5

Hey guys sorry if this is a dumb question or has been asked but I couldn't find an answer . So On3 performance is coming out with a twin set up for the C6 . I was wondering how this would work on a C5 since they look very similar to me . Maybe someone could shed some light on this for me .
Thanks ..

It might since they are dimensionally quite similar, but you might want to wait just a little bit. The most wicked turbo kit ever to touch a C5 will be here VERY soon and when you see it, you'll regret having gone in any other direction. That's about all I can say at the moment other than a little patience will go a long way in this case.

I doubt it, as George at TTi said his kits are not interchangeable between C5/C6. So Brett are you talking about Huron?

Agree. There are subtle differences between them and will more than likely have to make tweaks here and there.

Yep, he is

Tubular manifolds, full T4 S-cover turbos, 44mm gates, gravity drain, huge intercooler, maintain all accessories and in factory locations, and don't have to cut the frame or supports anywhere.

It's getting close to time now, maybe you can get Jon at Huron to throw any more detail out there

That would be the last place I'd run my charge pipes.
I'm looking forward to the Huron kit. I've heard rumor it'll be the best there is.

How many TT C5's are in the 8's? How many in the 7's?

It is damn clean and will be a real game changer. Anyone with a transmission that will hold a max effort build and the car set up to hook will easily run low, low 8's, maybe in the 7's with this kit. We'll be throwing one on blue soon.
I don't care to run an auto so I'll probably run a 10.0 @ 170 , but I expect to have fun with the 1/2 mile events.

I have heard good things about the Huron kit. Their gen. 4 Camaro stuff looks amazing. They have 4 kits out that basically cover the whole market. Very cleaver thinking. Also they have thought about pretty much everything in the kits. Hoping the c5 kit is the same.

I watched this kit come together piece by piece for months and interacted with the engineer, getting his thoughts throughout the entire build. It's a design that was completed over months time without any time constraints and done by someone who's quite **** about his work and didn't hesitate to stop, cut it up and start over to achieve the absolute best design possible. Ability to have air filters, get to your spark plugs, put big wastegates and fit turbos that can flow enough to support 1800+hp are all part of the design. I may have to write a thread after it's installed titled "Centri owners...Come at me bro!"

Based on what they show on their site, their kits are very reasonably priced, especially for the F-bodies.

Hopefully that will be carried over to some extent to the vette kits.

Looks like they make some nice products.

Looking forward to seeing the C5 kit.

That's what I'm hoping for too .. I can't really afford the TTI set up. The UPP kit is not priced too bad . The On3 systems or cheap and iv had one in a lsx turbo notch back mustang and I'll give them credit.. The kit worked ! That's the only reason I would buy from them again.

We will release some teasers here shortly of our kit. As Bret has said, it will certainly be one to wait for! Everything was thought of to bring you the best in fit, form, function, materials, and components!
